Description: These Coastal Units have been divided up from the Marine Biographic Regions. Marine Biographic regions were identified based on advice from specialists and an extensive literature search. Each region and transition zone was subdivided into "units", the boundaries of which were identified on the basis of broad changes in coastal and/or nearshore marine features. The Nearshore Marine Classification and Inventory (NMCI) is a classification and inventory of the habitats and ecosystems of the New Zealand nearshore marine area.
